While it's not officially summer for another eight-ish days, we think this Summer Shandy recipe is incredibly appropriate. It's light and sweet and would make a great addition to your father's day celebration. We are now carrying a great line of beer glasses from Spiegelau, which would make a great gift for Dad (or anyone who loves beer). The sets of glasses range from $29.99-$59.99.
To make this recipe you will need:
1/2 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup water
1/2 cup sparkling water
48 oz. of chilled Hefeweizen (we used El Jefe... yum!), that's 4 12 oz. bottles for the numerically challenged

Place lemon juice and sugar into a pitcher and stir. Add waters and continue to stir until sugar dissolves. Pour beer into chilled pint glasses and top each with a generous splash of sparkling lemonade. Serves 4.
